Israel Defense Forces ranks
→Obsolete ranks: The link to Aspirant or Cadet was wrong and removed. This is a cadet who has FINISHED the officer course, but sub-par, and is in effect no longer a cadet. The rank Memale Makom Katsin is a below-normal-officer position, not a cadet.

Israel Defense Forces ranks
→Obsolete ranks: Some mistakes in the description of the Substitute Officer. It is not academic (there are other ranks for that), and has nothing to do with reserves (it is a regular army rank). Fixed paragraph to reflect the proper usage of rank.

Israel Defense Forces ranks
→Obsolete ranks: corrected bad translation (correct is substitute (filling in for), NOT successor), and deleted a litral translation with no basis (the word Katzin has no clear etymology, and certainly not "influential one"; it simply means officer)

Gaza flotilla raid
